I don't have one, but I work at the global service center for the Church, who gives out/lends/whatever blackberries to various employees, and there are a lot of calls that we get about synchronization and setting it up to receive email to the phone and all that. Probably isn't a problem for you, but I think they can be more trouble than they're worth.

I have a cheapo cellphone, but I like it as it is very small. I would like to trade it in for an iPod Touch at some time (and use Skype, as it is much cheaper), but the software needs a little more work before that becomes practical.

I didn't have any problem at all setting it up for email. It worked like a charm.

Yeah, but you aren't using an Exchange server. ;D

What exactly do you mean by an exchange server? Lik syncing it up with outlookor something?

Exchange: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Exchange_Server

It tends to be a bit more complicated than many normal email services.

Yesterday, I went to church for the first time in a month. It was weird.

Microsoft has to make everything complicated...

Just use sendmail!

Yesterday was not a Sunday for me, regrettably. It felt like another Saturday.
(although, in my defense, I spent more than 10 hours traveling, which makes it hard to much sabbath-wise)

Ch... Forget that... Just use the built in BlackBerry thing.

Whoa, bob, that was a little disturbing. The last Sunday in November was the first time *I* attended church in a month- what's your excuse? I'm willing to bet it's pretty different from mine.

Over the summer I was sick one week, and traveling on three other sundays, so it ended up that out of 5 Sundays I only made it to 1... it was ridiculously weird to go back

My point being that sometimes things just don't work out... even if you don't have a good excuse (pregnancy, no church available, at a family reunion, etc) things sometimes still come up

I think our doom is at hand now.

I hate having tests the week before finals.
Just so you all know.

My reason had to do with being temporarily blind and very sick. Yep.

werf, I hope it didn't sound like I was being accusatory. There can definitely be perfectly valid reasons for not attending church for multiple weeks- although it hopefully isn't a common occurrence in anyone's life. Bob and I both had pretty valid excuses, I think. Mine had to do with traveling in places where I don't even know how close the nearest LDS congregation was- too far away to attend, that's for sure. and bob, I hope you're feeling better now.

I want to travel! I would much rather travel to far away places than take finals...

That would depend on how you define 'feeling better,' Wisteria, but I will say I could be doing worse.

way to be optimistic.

I try. : D
